  • High angle view of steeple and roofs of the Cistercian abbey, Monestir de Poblet, 1151, with a strip on landscape in the distance,  Vimbodi, Catalonia, Spain, pictured on May 21, 2006, in the morning. The Monastery of Poblet belongs to the Cistercian Order and was founded by French monks. Originally, Cistercian architecture, like the rules of the order, was frugal. But continuous additions  including late Gothic and Baroque, eventually made Poblet one of the largest monasteries in Spain which was later used as a fortress and royal palace. It was closed in 1835 by the Spanish State but refounded in 1940 by Italian Cistercians. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Picture by Manuel Cohen.
